Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 905 It was no surprise why he had accidentally made that mistake. After all, Gerald was stunned to knowthat she actually had slight feelings for him.
As far as Gerald remembered, he only ever had brief conversations with Jasmine, though he did admitto manipulating her slightly during some incidents. To think that she would end up falling for him justbecause of that…
“Anyway, when the Fendersons went over to the Crawford family some time ago, we learned that hehad gone missing. While I’ve sent a lot of people out to search for him, it’s already been a little over halfa year by now yet there still isn’t any news about him… I still occasionally wonder whether he left on hisown accord…” said Jasmine in a rather sad tone.
“…Regardless, are you done?” asked Jasmine as she turned to look at Sanderson.
At that, Gerald nodded before gesturing for her to get a good rest.
Just as he was about to leave with his medical kit, however, he caught a glimpse of some prayer toolslying around in her room.
With a slight frown, he then pointed at said objects before saying, “Ah, ah?”
He had meant to ask her whether there was something going on the next day, and though he wasworried that the question wouldn’t get across, Jasmine seemed to understand him just fine.
With a smile on her face, she nodded before saying, “There’s a church fair tomorrow. My aunts, Mindy,and I will be heading there to pray for blessings together. Haha! You may not know this, but in the past,
Mindy and I couldn’t leave the mansion all willy-nilly, Sanderson. We used to sneak out just to go tothat fair! We don’t have to sneak out anymore, though, so we can thoroughly enjoy ourselves therewithout fear of getting caught!”
Upon hearing that, Gerald’s expression saddened.
“…Hmm? Could it be that you wish to go there too? Now that I think about it, you’ve probably neverattended a church fair, have you?” asked Jasmine as she looked at his face.
In response, Gerald began gesturing happily.
“Alright then, it’s decided! If you aren’t too busy tomorrow, do keep us company and go out with us!”replied Jasmine with a smile.
Though Jasmine was rarely this friendly to someone she just met, she simply felt comfortable with him.
Perhaps it was his calming gaze and inability to talk properly—which meant that he was also naturally abetter listener—that made Jasmine willing to befriend him.
Regardless of whatever the true reason was for her to feel the way that she currently did, she wascomfortable with him and that was all that mattered.
As all this was happening, several people were celebrating an extraordinarily lively night in a secretroom within the Schuyler family’s mansion. The people involved were all seated at a large table,chatting merrily between sips of wine.
“The situation seems to have changed, dad. To think that that b*stard, Lord Fenderson, would actuallyhire Joshua to cure his illness! From what my subordinate reported to me, his complexion looks muchbetter now after just a single session of the treatment!” said Yael in a worried tone.
“Master Yael, you worry too much! The Longs and the Schuylers are different now! Not only have bothour families agreed to cooperate to ensure the success of this mission, but we’re also getting valuableassistance from a few masters from the Moldell family! Bryson’s no longer a threat!” sneer a middle-aged man who went by the name of Berk Long.
Berk was Master Long’s youngest son, and just like Master Long’s other sons, he had his own set ofskills that separated him from the rest.
He was most prominently known for being both strong and powerful, just like how his name suggested.
Not only was he the leader of the Long family’s secret forces, but he was also a key player during theattempt to capture Gerald alive in Merry City back then. Though Gerald had managed to escape, thefact that Gerald had only made it out by the skin of his teeth made him worthy enough to be trustedeven by the Moldells.
“…I suppose you’re right, Berk!” said Yael.
“Humph! But of course he is! You need to learn more from your elders from now on, Yael! Wit isn’teverything, you know? Speaking of which, the first phase of the plan starts tomorrow. How goes thepreparations?” asked Noah.
“Worry not, everything’s already in place. After all, with both Quentin and Trey on our side, phase oneis most definitely already in the bag!” said Yael as he looked at the similar-looking brothers from theMoldell family.
“Well I’ll rest assured then! Since the Quentin & Trey duo are Master Jett’s younger cousins, I havereason to believe that their capabilities are on par with Master Jett’s!” added Noah with a flattering tone.
“You’ve got to be joking! There’s no way we could ever compare to our cousin!” said both of thebrothers as they shook their heads with bitter smiles on their faces.
“There’s no need to be modest! Anyway, a toast to the success of the first phase tomorrow!”novelbin
